Re: Screw General Motors (and any other automaker engaging in this practice)

I agree that the "safe driving" insurance programs are often scams. Given car companies are banking companies when they finance your loan or lease, then does the car data have to follow the same privacy regulations as banking companies? The finance companies are definitely subject to the regulations...

Re: CBS Detroit Job Cuts

If — as you suggest — he was an attention whore, he has been so for awhile. It’s not like one recently he woke up, rolled out of bed, and said ‘I’ve been a great worker at CBS Detroit, but today I’d like to really stick it to management and just make it all about me.’ He likely was that way from da...

Re: Another leaving WXYZ

I've heard WXYZ is an utter disaster and many are quitting The 4PM show is the only daypart I'd characterize as bad. That is the cut-and-paste newscast that primarily relies on national content from Scripps News. The rest of their newscasts are quite watchable with a good mix of content. The statio...

TV20 is broadcasting five Pistons games.

April 1st vs. Memphis is the first listed.
April Fool's Day. Very fitting since the Pistons are involved!

Re: Detroit Pistons just sent me a survey...

I gave honest answers to each question, which means in assessing the current direction of the team, I gave the worst scores possible. I also strongly criticized the job performance of Troy Weaver.

Figured I had nothing to lose by providing my honest opinion.

Re: NBC hires and then quickly fires Ronna McDaniel after backlash from on-air hosts

McDaniel's RNC bashed the MSM news organizations regularly and characterized election coverage as "fake." Well-seasoned journalists took offense to the fact someone who views them with disdain (or at least pretended to do so) would be drawing a paycheck from NBC Universal and perhaps roaming the sam...

Re: Michigan To Hire Florida Atlantics Dusty May As Head Basketball Coach

Nearly identical columns from Wojo at the News and Rainer at the Freep published hours apart trying to prop up Warde. The Mel Pearson fiasco receives only a couple sentences in each column. Both provide almost identical detail of John Beilein's involvement in recruiting Dusty. Both columns completel...

Lions lose Josh Reynolds to free agency

His second half performance against the Niners stunk, but he played very well most of the 2023 season. I was hoping he'd return. Instead, he's signed a contract with the Broncos. https://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/nfl/lions/2024/03/27/lions-lose-receiver-josh-reynolds-who-gets-14m-deal-with-de...

Re: MSU vs. UM hockey this weekend

The NCAA said it likes to host regionals in a Metro area that is set to host the Frozen Four the following year.

Regardless, choosing a ~2,500 seat venue for a regional is beyond idiotic.

The Frozen Four in 2025 will be played at the Enterprise Center, the home of the St. Louis Blues.

I noticed Bally's recently increased the monthly price of their streaming channel by $5. It is now $19.99 a month. No thanks! 🤬
